If you have a FAT32 partition on your computer, do the following.
Copy the following to the root of your hard drive ( c:\ )
* the KNOPPIX directory, and its contents
* the BOOT directory, and its contents
Restart and boot from your CDROM,
and at the boot: prompt, type dsl fromhd=/dev/hda1
This is a "poorman's" install, where the copy on the HD acts
just like the CD would, but only faster...
You could also use the floppy disk image, and boot from that as well.
In the true spirit of DSL Live CD, I will suggest that you use the liveCD
AS-IS, and begin to learn to use the extensions and backup procedures
to create your own customized environment using the hard drive space
for programs, data, and custom files, rather than using it
to duplicate what is already on the CD.
Take a look at these threads, and the variety of desktops and installed apps.
These are ALL from a LiveCD, using the HD only for STORAGE, not the OS.
